Dragon Bot - Default ScriptDragon Script is a framework to make it as easy as possible to test your own strategies and set alerts for external execution bots.
The script has many features build in, like:
1) A ping/pong mechanism between longs and shorts
2) A stop-loss
3) Trailing Stops with several ways to calculate them.
4) 2 different ways to flip from long to short.
The script is divided into several parts.
The first part of the script is used to set all the variables. You should normally never change the first part except for the comments at the top.
The second part of the script is the part where you initialise all your indicators. Several indicators can be found on Tradingview and on other sites. Please keep in mind that all the variable names used in the indicator should be unique. (all the … = … parts)
The third part of the script, is the most important part of the script. Here you can create the entry and exit points.
Let’s look at the OPENLONG function to explain this part: The first variables are all the possible entries; These are longentry1 till longentry5. You can add many more if you like.
The variables are all initialised as being false. This way the script can set a value to true if an entry happens.
The if function is the actual logic: You could say “if this is true” then (the line below the if function) longentry1 := (becomes) true.
In this case we have said: “if this is true” then (the line below the if function) longentry1 := (becomes) true when the current close is larger than the close that is 1 back.
The last part is the makelong_funct. This part says that if any of the entries are true, the whole function is true.
The last part of the script is the actual execution. Here the alerts are plotted and the back test strategies are opened and closed.
We hope you guys like it and all feedback is welcome!

Security() Correction - Realtime vs. Historical BarsProblem
Pine's implementation of the security() function behaves differently in realtime vs. historical bars. Specifically, for historical bars, calling security() for a time frame (TF) larger/slower than the current chart's TF will return information about the last completed bar of the higher TF. However, for realtime bars (i.e. if you allow the chart to continue to plot in realtime), security() returns information about the presently in-progress bar of the higher TF. Clearly, this leads to discontinuity that is arbitrarily dependent upon when the user last loaded or refreshed the chart.
Solution
Fortunately, after understanding the problem, solving it is trivial: use security() normally for historical bars, but switch to explicitly requesting prior candle bars once the indicator is operating on realtime bars. I leave the source open here for any to use as they see fit. For testing, I include an input to allow switching back and forth between standard and corrected behavior.
Figure 1 displays the standard behavior we see in security() calls, and Figure 2 displays the behavior after my correction:
Figure 1: Typical security() behavior in Pine
Figure 2: Corrected security() behavior, forcing historical and realtime bars to refer to the same higher TF bar offset.
I publish this mostly as a reminder to myself, so I will not forget and then have to figure it out again next time it comes up in my scripting.

TRADING VIEW INDICATOR - PINE TUTORIAL 5After a long gap, I have written the 5th tutorial for the pine script. You can find the others below, if you read through all of these you should be good to do your own writing.
This script mimics the Trading View Indicator . For example this one below.
www.tradingview.com
It shows the net result of the 28 indicator, either as buy or sell. I have worked hard to make sure it matches the trading view results but I am not in hundred percent agreement with tradingView on SMA, EMA and Ichimoku indicator.
There are many commented plots because I needed to check separately if each indicator is working correctly.
Someone else wrote this code but they did not make it public. It took me about 3 weeks to write this and to be honest it could be cleaner and better commented.
If you find any mistake please let me know. I hope it will be useful in your learning.
Pine Script Tutorial #2In this second tutorial we build upon the previous tutorial. We add color shading for each different day and highlight Wednesday.
The idea here is to manually count if on Wednesdays close is bigger then open.
Hope it helps.
Feel free to comment.

"Smoothed" CandlesHi!
This new functions plotbar and plotcandle are amazing! Just look at this smoothed candles here)))
Higher Resolution Bars on Intraday ChartHi everybody!
With new plotbar and plotcandle functions you may plot somewhat "stretched" daily bars over intraday chart. Enjoy!
